Boiler Replacement Feasibility Study
Problem:
Christchurch Airport wanted to replace their diesel and LPG hot water boilers with a low carbon alternative.
Solution:
Lumen investigated the feasibility of various boiler replacement options and recommended the best technologies suitable for implementation at Christchurch Airport.
Results:
Christchurch Airport replaced two diesel and two LPG hot water boilers (3MW) with a ground source heat pump. The Airport’s water cooled chillers were also replaced. This resulted in carbon savings of 1,000 tCO2-e per year.
